USPS Offers Buyouts Again

The Postal Service is offering buyouts to members of one of its biggest unions. It will pay full-time postal workers 15,000 to quit by early next year. The American Postal Workers Union said all of its nearly 190,000 members are eligible since the postal service is willing to pay those who resign as well as retire. Full-time workers will have to decide by December. Others have until January. This is the third buyout the Postal Service has offered this year. The agency said labor is its biggest expense.
